An elderly Pakistani immigrant beat his wife to death with a stick after the doomed woman made the mistake of cooking him lentils for dinner instead of the hearty meal of goat meat that he craved, according to court papers.

Noor Hussein, 75, was so outraged over the prospect of eating the vegetarian fare that he pummeled his wife, Nazar Hussein, 66, inside their Brooklyn apartment until she was a â€œbloody mess,â€ prosecutors said in opening statements of his murder trial Wednesday.

â€œDefendant asked [his wife] to cook goat and [his wife] said she made something else,â€ court papers said.
â€œThe conversation got louder and [his wife] disrespected defendant by cursing at defendant and saying motherfâ€“ker and that the defendant took a wooden stick and hit her with it on her arm and mouth.â€
